A new home is a major purchase with potential
to increase in value. Will it be a good investment? Was
it built by an experienced professional builder? Were quality
materials used? You can see the finished product, but what
about those components that you can’t see which make
up the “structure” of your new home?
Unlike implied promises or deals made by a
handshake, the RWC Limited Warranty assures you that your
new home is protected with a written warranty.

|
By including the RWC Limited Warranty with your
new home, your builder is backing his or her reputation with
a written, insured warranty. If you have a warranted problem
within the applicable coverage period, it will be corrected
by the builder, or RWC will fulfill your builder’s obligations
under the warranty. |
The RWC Limited Warranty adds value to your new home.
The RWC Limited Warranty is an excellent sales tool. If you decide
to sell your home during the term of the warranty, the remaining
warranty protection automatically transfers to future owners.
Every builder who offers the RWC Limited Warranty must
first meet stringent criteria. Builders are rescreened annually
to ensure their performance remains consistent with membership
standards.
Builders are evaluated on financial stability, customer satisfaction
& technical competence.
RWC Builders must also comply with specific construction
standards in order to have their homes warranted by RWC. If
your builder provides the RWC Limited Warranty, you can be
certain that your home was built by a qualified professional. |
 |
What if your builder is unable to meet the warranty obligations?
Builders in the RWC program have an excellent record of fulfilling
the terms of the warranty; but, unforeseen circumstances can prevent
a builder from keeping his or her commitments. The RWC Limited Warranty
is fully insured, and warranted items will be covered by RWC’s
insurers if your builder cannot comply.
For your living enjoyment, insist on a home with the RWC Limited
warranty.

The RWC Limited Warranty provides excellent protection
for your new home. The following is a brief overview of the
warranty. Be sure to read your warranty book for specific warranty
standards, definitions and limits to coverage. |
Year one warranty items that do not meet warranty standards in
the first year of the warranty period, will be corrected by the
builder.
In the unlikely event that your new home develops a warranted structural
defect as defined in your warranty book, the defect will be corrected
by the warrantor.
RWC offers its warranty services throughout the United States.
Some states and regulating agencies have specific criteria relating
to the Warranty. These are identified in the Addenda section of
the Warranty book.
With any new home, ongoing maintenance is necessary and is the
homeowner’s responsibility. Your builder can assist you in
understanding how you can take care of your home to avoid problems.
 |
The RWC Limited Warranty defines the gray areas. Standards
to determine potential defects, the builder’s obligations,
and warranty issue resolution procedures are outlined in your
warranty book.
RWC’s proven methods help resolve disputes between
builders and homeowners.
Even with a written warranty, builders and homeowners may
not always see eye to eye. Fortunately for both parties, the
RWC Limited Warranty includes an arbitration process to resolve
disputes quickly and inexpensively. |
